Adventures in Innovative Learning Design and Technology (Canvas.net)

Participants will engage in a fun four-week adventure to develop a practical and experiential understanding of pedagogy, learning theory, and learning design with technology. Educators and educators-in-training in higher education, as well as teachers and educational specialists in primary and secondary schools, will find value in this course.

Learning Outcomes & Activities:
In Week 1, we will prepare for our learning adventure by creating a Google Hangout, developing our personal learning environments and networks (PLE & PLN), and engaging in other introductory activities.
In Week 2, we will use a Google Hangout and other engaging activities to explore key concepts related to pedagogy, learning theory, and learning design with technology. We will identify and answer questions such as:
What is learning design a.k.a. instructional design?
What does it mean to be a learning designer with awesome technology at your fingertips?
What are some concepts and vocabulary that we should all know to move forward as learning designers?
In Week 3, we will use a Google Hangout and other engaging activities to explore innovative learning with technology.
In Week 4, we will use a Google Hangout and other engaging activities to bring it all together and reflect on learning and action plans to continue on the path of innovative learning design with technology.

如果将软件开发人员看作行走江湖的武侠,那么各种软件开发技术就是武侠赖以傍身的武术秘籍。有的秘籍以易学灵巧见长,练习者很快掌握,并有立竿见影的功效,但失之厚重持久;有的秘籍初学乍练顿显困难,虽冥思苦解仍不得要领,需坚持不断的内功修炼方成正果,却是成为武林大侠必备的至宝。本课程有些类似于后者。
